What Would You Do?

Ok Im posing a few scenarios (regarding P67 issue etc).

I can go out buy a cheap 99.00 P67 and wait till the z68 comes out.

Pick up a Gigabyte GA-P67A-UD5 that is on the shelf at Tiger Direct depot store. (Only have 1 left)

Do nothing and wait till (possibly April, May to build) once they ship out fixed mobos.

Order Gigabyte GA-P67A-UD7 online from store.

The reason I mentioned the last one (UD7) is because I'm curious to know if I get the UD5 over UD7 will I lose out on any ability to overclock every last drop of speed out of my cpu possible? If so I would get the UD7.

Ive seen postings of guys hitting 5.5ghz on UD5. But the girl from UK that achieved 5.8 was on a UD7. So will I be cutting myself short on max OC capability if I go with the lesser?

Thanks for your replies.
 
Overclockwise its nothing to do with the board it depends how lucky you are with the CPU you get and mainly your own ability to overclock as its not all about cranking the volts and hoping for the best.

Mobo wise its your call about waiting. Theres plenty of info about to fomulate your own conclusion.
